Definitions
- the systems and methods disclosed herein relate generally to optimizations to the 802.11 MAC implementation, particularly utilizing MAC aggregation without generating undue latency.
- Transmission of media, such as streaming video content, across wireless networks may employ a number of different protocols, including the IEEE 802.11 protocol.
- the 802.11 protocol breaks the media into “packets” of information which are then individually transmitted to the receiving device.
- the receiver will periodically acknowledge the packets' receipt to the transmitter and will adjust its network parameters, such as its network address, to accommodate other devices on the network.
- the transmitter may group the packets into sets, so that the receiver need not individually acknowledge receipt of each particular packet. Grouping the packets into these sets, or blocks, is known as aggregation.
- the single group acknowledgment provided by the receiver is referred to as a Block-ACK.
- Aggregation and acknowledgment via a Block-ACK improves throughput and efficiency for 802.11 implementations as they are handled by a medium access control (MAC) layer of a device.
- the Block-ACK also reduces compression and collision probabilities from hidden nodes.
- MAC medium access control
- End to end latency may be unfavorable for “mirroring” applications where communication must rapidly occur in two or more directions, such as for gaming applications and interactive display applications.
- wireless data acknowledgement aggregation without the undesirable undue latency penalty.
- FIG. 1 is a general concept based illustration of various wireless transmission and receiving computer systems which may implement various of the disclosed embodiments.
- FIG. 2 depicts a sequence of video frame segments organized into blocks pursuant to certain of the embodiments.
- FIG. 3 depicts a communications system hierarchy implementing various of the disclosed embodiments.
- FIG. 4 is a logical flow diagram illustrating certain of the steps as may be performed in certain of the disclosed embodiments for aligning the MAC layer with the transport stream.
- Various of the present embodiments improve 802.11 protocol throughput in the MAC layer of a device by reducing the latency penalty associated with aggregation of acknowledgement signals that occur in the MAC layer of a device.
- certain of the embodiments align the MAC layer and transport stream so that the acknowledgment of a block (a Block-ACK event) of aggregated MAC service data units (MSDU) is aligned with the first and last MSDU of a video frame.
- the MSDU is a service data unit that is received from the logical link control (LLC) sub-layer which lies above the medium access control (MAC) sub-layer in a protocol stack. Alignment of the acknowledgment with the video frame MSDUs avoids certain undesirable delays.
- LLC logical link control
- MAC medium access control
- the receiving device may delay the MAC release until a Block-ACK event or may decode video asynchronously with the operations of the MAC layer. Alignment will instead remove the need for the MAC layer and decoder to independently time and delay their operations. This may improve the overall efficiency of the system.
- FIG. 1 provides a general overview for a MAC address 802.11 system.
- a plurality of devices 101 a - c communicate with one another using the 802.11 standard.
- Each device 101 a - c transmits packets via transmissions 102 , 103 to another device.
- the transmissions may, for example, comprise streaming video content.
- each device 101 a - c may send a plurality of MAC protocol data units (MPDU).
- MPDU is a message exchanged between MAC entities, such as devices 101 a - c , in a communication system based on the layered OSI model.
- the MPDU may include multiple MSDUs as a result of packet aggregation.
- one MSDU may generate multiple MPDUs as a result of packet segmentation.
- Information such as the streaming video content, may be transmitted via the MPDUs.
- Each device 101 a - c may use Block-ACKs to send multiple MPDUs without requiring an L2 ACK per MPDU. That is, Block-ACKs may be used to aggregate MPDUs. This improves transmission efficiency as larger amounts of data can be transmitted without waiting for an acknowledgment. Unfortunately, as discussed above, this method may also result in additional latency since the receiving device is obliged to internally buffer out-of-order MSDUs caused by transmission errors.
- the receiving device may delay the MAC release until a Block-ACK event. Because the Block-ACK event is delayed until the transmitter exhausts (or terminates) the transmission operation, this may introduce undesirable communication delay. Such additional delay at the receiver may even stall the decoder pipeline.
- Certain embodiments mitigate this problem by having the decoder begin decoding only after an entire video frame is delivered. These embodiments may also seek to prevent the Block-ACK sequence from straddling consecutive frames.
- FIG. 2 depicts a sequence 200 of video frame segments 203 a - d organized into blocks.
- Block-ACK sequence 201 a aligns Block-ACK windows 201 a - b with video frame boundaries, as shown in FIG. 2 . That is, the Block-ACK sequence 201 a aligns with the first 203 a and last 203 c segments of the video frame transmission.
- the transmitter may ensure that while any single video frame may be composed of one or more Block-ACK sequences, a Block-ACK sequence is unconditionally terminated whenever it encounters the terminal MSDU containing the last segment 203 c corresponding to a video frame.
- the MAC DATA SAP may be further enhanced to flag whether the MSDU 202 should end a Block-ACK window, or whether the MSDU 202 is a terminal MSDU in a video frame or slice.
- FIG. 3 depicts a communications system hierarchy implementing various of the disclosed embodiments.
- the communications system may, for example, be part of a display system implementing L2 low latency aggregation control for Wi-Fi display.
- the hierarchy comprises a series of functional blocks 300 performing various functions prior to transmission of the information, such as a video content stream.
- Media such as video 301 determines the period of clock 308 based upon the frame-rate, or other timing factor, of the content therein.
- the video 301 may be subsequently passed through a codec 302 and packetizer 303 before entering the real time protocol (RTP) 304 stream.
- the media clock 308 may be used to facilitate placement in the RTP.
- the media may then pass through the UDP/IP layer 305 .
- the system may then determine if the frame is aligned 309 and enforce Block-ACK sequence control 310 as discussed above in FIG. 2 .
- the media altered as necessary to enforce the Block-ACK alignment, may then proceed to the MAC layer 306 .
- the media may subsequently be transmitted at the physical layer 307 to the receiving device.
- FIG. 4 is a logical flow diagram illustrating certain of the steps as may be performed in certain of the disclosed embodiments for aligning the MAC layer with the transport stream.
- the variables referred to in the figure may be generally defined as follows:
- T[n] Timestamp in the nth-RTP packet
- T R reference timestamp
- Flag Boolean flag to start a new Block-ACK sequence.
- FIG. 4 merely provides one example implementation of this process. Accordingly, the particular choice of variables used therein is not necessary to achieve the described functionality.
- the Flag as described here is only for explanatory purposes and one will readily recognize that the Boolean values and control flow queries may be reversed, the Boolean variable substituted for an integer 1 or 0, etc. or any other manner mutatis mutandis in which flag variables are implemented in hardware or software to indicate a particular state.
- the particular description provided in FIG. 4 is for purposes of explanation and the algorithm itself may be implemented by substituting other variables and control flow structures as are readily known to one skilled in the art.
- the process begins at step 402 where the variables may be initialized.
- the counter n is set to 0
- T R is set to an initial reference value, such as the value of an RTP timestamp, and the Flag may be set to true so that a new block sequence is begun at step 405 .
- the system may wait until an RTP packet is received. Once an RTP packet has been received, the system increments the counter n at step 404 . The system may then determine at step 405 whether the Flag is true. As the Flag was initially set to true at step 402 , the system will transition to step 406 where a new Block-ACK sequence is begun. To prevent a new sequence from beginning upon the next iteration, the system sets the Flag to false at step 407 .
- the system After determining whether to start a new Block-ACK sequence the system then determines the difference D at step 408 between the timestamp of the most recently received RTP packet with the reference timestamp. At step 409 the system then determines if the Block-ACK sequence should be terminated. In this embodiment, the system determines if the difference D is greater than 0 and if D is a multiple of the video clock frequency divided by the video frame rate. If both of these conditions are met, then the system transitions to state 410 and terminates the Block-ACK sequence. The system may also then set the flag to true at step 411 to initiate a new Block-ACK sequence on the next iteration. The system may also set the reference timestamp T R to the timestamp of the current packet at step 412 .
- the system may then determine if the stream is complete. If the stream is not yet complete, the system may proceed back to state 403 and await receipt of the next RTP packet. In this manner, the system may ensure that the Block-ACK sequences are begun and terminated, such that the MAC layer and transport stream are aligned.
- C 90 KHz.
- R 30 frames/second
- C/R 3,000.
- the RTP timestamp would be increased by exactly 3,000 per video frame.
- the MAC DATA SAP may examine the timestamp in the RTP packet and align the Block-ACK sequence operation with the video frame boundary. In some embodiments, the system may do this regardless of which compression codec scheme is used.
- This alignment mechanism may ensure that the receiver MAC will not delay the delivery of any portion of a video frame, while receiving parts of the next video frame. Accordingly, the acts of decoding, post-processing, and rendering a video frame will not be delayed by ongoing wireless transmission of the next video frame. Furthermore, the algorithm does not impose substantial overhead, especially when slicing is used. For example, a full video frame of 720p30 compressed to 10 Mbps requires BA alignment every ⁇ 42 Kbytes. Thus, with 8 Kbyte of aggregation, the overhead of terminating a BA window is relatively small.
- a system which implements slicing as the pipelined unit may need to implement Block-ACK alignment at the boundaries of these frame slices.
- MAC efficiency considerations may dictate a lower bound for the pipeline unit however. That is, when slicing is used, aggregation itself may become problematic. For example, slicing every 16 scan-lines would result in MSDU on the order of ⁇ 926 bytes.
- Feeding back to the encoder a signal that indicates successful transmission of the terminal MSDU in a video frame (or slide) may bound delays caused by unexpected transmission error rates over-the-air.
- the transmitter application can adapt, by skipping frames, or by scaling other encoder parameters
- a TX-completion timestamp for the terminal MSDU for every video frame may be computed by the transmitting device. This timestamp may be provided via an enhanced MAC SAP back to the encoder. In conjunction with other statistics, the timestamp may provide a basis for detecting TX latency accumulation, and to trigger suitable adaptation policies in the multimedia transmitter application.
